Annie and her new husband Max Darling are looking forward to a romantic Valentine's Day. But before the day is through, no one is in the mood for love: the woman next door is trying to seduce Annie's husband; Agatha and Dorothy L., the store's felines, are fighting; and Max's mother Laurel is coming for one of her quiet visits, which never end up that way. And when Annie thinks things can't possibly get worse, she finds the corpse of Sydney Cahill, the beautiful wife of a local shipping magnate. Max's mother is implicated and the charge may be Murder One.". Inscribed By the Author. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
